Refi of Primary home no longer deductible? What about house hack?

Hey all,

So if I'm understanding this aspect of the new tax law, the mortgage interest is only deductible on ACQUISITION debt for your primary residence... correct? Meaning if I get into a house with a higher interest rate for whatever reason and a year or so down the road my credit situation is much better and I want to refi for a better rate that new mortgage interest will no longer be deductible? 

Now here's a slight caveat: What if I am house hacking and renting out two of three bedrooms?
